Recently, a small trail segment connecting a park in Littleton to the High Line Canal Trail has been blocked by a private property owner. This has caused some concern among city officials, but they remain optimistic that access will be restored in the near future.
The news of this closure was shared by Littleton officials on their social media account on Tuesday. It seems that the closure has caused some inconvenience for visitors to Jackass Hill Park, as it prevents them from directly accessing the High Line Canal. The park, located at the intersection of South Prince Street and West Jackass Hill Road, has been a popular spot for hikers and cyclists who enjoy the scenic views and outdoor activities.
In their post, Littleton officials stated that they are aware of the closure and that it was the decision of the private property owner to block the access trail. However, they are not giving up hope and are planning to engage with the property owner to find a solution. This news was shared by City Manager Jim Becklenberg, who explained that the city is working with its partners, the South Suburban Parks and Recreation District and the High Line Canal Conservancy, to resolve the issue as soon as possible.
It was only on Saturday evening that Littleton learned about the closure, and since then, the city's leadership and partners have been working hard to find a resolution. Becklenberg emphasized that the city respects private property rights and is looking forward to working with the property owner to reopen the trail.
The High Line Canal, spanning 71 miles, is not only an important irrigation waterway but has also become a popular recreational destination for people in Denver, Highlands Ranch, Littleton, and other surrounding communities. It is a beautiful spot for people to enjoy nature and engage in outdoor activities.
